	This one is based on dosemu0.48p1 (by Rober Sanders). If you like 
X dosemu, you should also thank Rober Sanders.

	This one was finished 2 months ago, but I didn't have time to release 
it because I was preparing my master's thesis.
	This one is still a toy, but there will be no more X dosemu 
release.  ( sorry )

It is available at
	1. sunsite.unc.edu	/pub/Linux/Incoming
	   (will be moved to /pub/Linux/ALPHA/dosemu )
	2. earth.csie.ntu.edu.tw  (140.112.28.163)  /pub/Linux

Features:
	. Running under X window. ( So you can set DISPLAY to other machines )
	. 80x25 COLOR term   ( It only runs on a color VGA )
	. ALT keys and func keys work. (They don't work under xterm)
	. Xterm's scroll bar and copy-paste buffer
	. X11 text int 33 mouse driver (not fully implemented yet)

Changes:
	You can use PC vga font now.
	Simple X text mosue driver (int33) support
	( Using standard X mouse call )
        ( Try dosshell in dos5.0 )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Install:

Options:
-xms			/* Enable XMS */
-hd_head HD_head	/* physical HD */
-hd_cyl	HD_cylider
-hd_sec HD_sector
-imhd_head HD_head	/* your hdimage file */
-imhd_cyl HD_cylider
-imhd_sec HD_sector
-chtr
   /* Use vga font. You must also change font option -fn 10x20 to -fn vga */
-mousedrv /* Enable text mouse driver */

	Assuming you have run dosemu before,

	1. Copy your bootable msdos hdimage in your dosemu dir to xdosemu dir.
	2. modify 'xd' and add the options above.
	3. cp libxdosemu /lib
	4. chmod 4755 xdos	( set root uid for this file )
	5. % xd     ( hdimage as C, /dev/hda as D (write protect) )
	6. See xdos.* shell-scripts to see how to swap C: D: and set write-
	   protect.
	7. to install vga font
	    # cp vga.pcf /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc
	    # cd /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc
	    # mkfontdir                 /* update font index */
	    # xset fp rehash		/* reload index */
	    # xfd -fn vga
		/* You should see the vga font on your screen now */

. You can enable/disable HD write-protect at any time.
	   ( Press CTRL and the left button of your mouse, then you can see a
	     menu )
. Pressing the three buttons of mouse can enable/disable mouse driver
